What steps his Department is taking to ensure that all schools teach awareness of LGBT issues in an age-appropriate manner.
- Answer

All women affected by faster equalisation reach state pension age under the new state pension system, which is more generous to many women than the previous system. In the first 10 years, around 650,000 will receive £8 per week more on average, due to the new state pension valuation.
